Answer: Area= 1400
Step-by-step explanation:
ok so we can assume the
breadth=X
so, length = X+5 (because the length is 5 meters more than the breadth)
perimeter= 150 meters
the formula of the perimeter of a rectangle = 2 x ( Length + Breadth)
so now if we put the values,
2 * ( X+5 +X) = 150 ( because 150 is the perimeter)
2 * (2X + 5) = 150 (the value became 2x because when we add two variables with the same value it will be written as 2(any variable)).
now we multiply 2 with both sides
so ( 2 * 2X) + (2 * 5)
hence, 4X + 10 = 150
now we will solve the equation,
4X= 150 -10 (because we did transposal the signs will change from "+" to "-")
4x= 140
again with the transposal (when we write a number with a variable it shows that it means the number multiplied by the variable in this case it is 4 multiplied by X ) so when we transpose we will have to divide because multiplication turns into division while transposing
so now,
X= 140÷4
which is equal to 35
so finally X = 35
so as we have written in the beginning breadth= X
and LENGTH= X+5
so now we have found X
BREADTH= 35
LENGTH= 40 (because 35+5 is 40)
now we have to find area the formula for finding the area is LENGTH×BREADTH
so, 40 × 35 = 1400
now we put the unit which is square meters also known as
<u>so there is your final answer 1400</u><u />
